Correspondence and Comments Subsequent to Initial Analysis
Correspondence 1 11 Aug 2004 e-mail from Richard Moe, including Interchange Feedback from Keir Morse see Comment 1
Editorial Comments 1 Correspondence 1 indicates that Arctostaphylos chaloneorum was described by Roof in 1978 from Pinnacles National Monument; that in 1979, Roof reduced the species to a subspecies of Arctostaphylos pungens, as Arctostaphylos pungens subsp. chaloneorum (Roof) Roof; that in the specimen database at UC/JEPS, a type specimen of Arctostaphylos chaloneorum is identified (anonymously) as Arctostaphylos pungens; and that Philip Wells, who wrote the account of Arctostaphylos in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1], published a book on California Manzanitas in 2000, in which he treats Arctostaphylos chaloneorum as a synonym of Arctostaphylos pungens. [Therefore, it seems justified to treat Arctostaphylos chaloneorum as a synonym of Arctostaphylos pungens, under the authority of Philip V. Wells, author of the treatment of Arctostaphylos in The Jepson Manual [Ed. 1]]
Correspondence 2 Treatment and author notes submitted for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] by V. Thomas Parker, Michael C. Vasey, Jon E. Keeley see Comment 2
Editorial Comments 2 Correspondence 2 indicates that for The Jepson Manual [Ed. 2] Arctostaphylos chaloneorum Roof is to be treated as a synonym of Arctostaphylos pungens Kunth.
